If you are an operator in the bitcoin mining industry in the US it is imperative that you ignore this survey and tell the EIA, the Department of Energy, and the current administration to fuck off.

Telling the DOE to fuck off probably wouldn't be the brightest business decision versus demonstrating how they help stabilize the grids in some areas.

Fighting in court might be the best response. I agree with Marty. Its naive to think they want to be educated on how grids are improved by PoW mining. This data has been public and publicized for years. This is a fishing attempt with an eye towards targeted attacks on U.S. miners.

This is a healthy development as it will lead to a more globally distributed mining capacity

After that, they will be expected to disclose the location of their individual operations, including GEOGRAPHIC COORDINATES, and the amount of electricity that was consumed at the facility all together, regardless of whether or not the miner has any control of the electricity that it is not using.
From there they will have to disclose the percentage of the facility's electricity consumption that was used specifically for mining and doxx their electric service provider.
Registry appears to be the correct term.
I am assuming this information would be available to the public via a FOIA request.
